Summary Introduction
To review:
Match the term subclavian arteries with the most closely related descriptions given below:
deliver blood to the head
transport blood to the body’s internal organs and skeletal muscles
arteries whose smooth muscles do not contract
stationary blood clot
network of capillaries
arteries that supply a capillary network
supply blood to the upper limbs
small air sacs
supply blood to the lower limbs
collect blood from the kidneys
Introduction:
The arch of the aorta is divided into three different branches. These branches are the left subclavian artery, the brachiocephalic trunk, and the left carotid artery. These vessels together supply the blood to the head, upper limbs of the body, neck, and shoulder.
